CHICAGO - October 30, 2023 – GMM Nonstick Coatings and RESONAC jointly announce that Founder and CEO Ravin Gandhi will be leaving the company on December 31, 2023.

Shinzo Tsukamoto, head of the Coatings Materials Department at RESONAC, will assume the role of interim CEO of GMM Nonstick Coatings as of January 1, 2024.

According to Ravin Gandhi “Starting, growing, and selling GMM has been the highlight of my professional life. However, 5 years after selling the company the time has come for me to move on to new entrepreneurial activities. I will remain forever grateful to my team, my clients, and RESONAC, all of whom were instrumental in GMM’s success.”

According to Shinzo Tsukamoto “Ravin has been the face of the company for so many years, but we knew this day would eventually come.

Ravin Gandhi founded GMM in 2007, and every day 40 million Americans use GMM Nonstick Coatings in their kitchens. RESONAC acquired 100% of GMM Nonstick Coatings in 2017.
